Introduction

Most people are unaware of the level of engineering involved in creating a modern car. It gets even more impressive once you start looking into something like a BMW that has been precisely engineered from top to bottom to deliver a fantastic driving experience. Driving 140MPH in a well engineered car doesn’t even feel dangerous from the driver seat. So many engineering safety features are involved, not just because of the “crumple zones” that factor in once you get into an accident, but also the rest of the components, which give you optimal safe control of your vehicle, preventing you from getting into an accident in the first place. This is a far cry from the cars of the 70s and 80s, which feel a lot more dangerous to drive with worse handling at 30MPH than a BMW M3 today at 200MPH.

Of course, there are also people who would argue, do you really need that kind of car? Those types of people are probably content with something like an AMC Gremlin and don’t realize just how far we have come in terms of automotive engineering. Even a Toyota Corolla today is significantly safer and runs much more efficiently than the model from the 80s. Video cards today are relatively similar to modern cars, able to be cranked far beyond what we expected. Mainstream PC video gaming today means you get to crank up most of the eye candy and play at 1080p at a much lower cost. Most games these days are console ports which have 5-year old hardware in them. Unlike the non-car enthusiasts however, when it comes to PC gaming, the cynical question sounds valid: Why do you need a more powerful video card? Engineers don’t really bother with the why but are more concerned about the hows, as in how many more frame rates can we churn out on this hardware. When it gets to that level of engineering, it becomes a lot about the best gaming experience the hardware can provide, just like the best high end cars provide the best driving experience. If the GTX 590 is the fastest NVIDIA video card available in the market, how much better will your gaming experience be when you are running a pair of them?

The EVGA GTX 590 Classified video card consists of two GF110 GPUs on a single PCB. The EVGA GTX 590 Classified has 3,072MB of GDDR5 memory on a 768-bit memory interface equipped with 1,024 CUDA cores. Clocked higher than the stock GTX 590, the EVGA GeForce GTX 590 Classified edition carries a core clock of 630 MHz and a memory clock of 3456 MHz. A pair of EVGA GTX 590 Classified in SLI provides astonishing performance, unlike anything NVIDIA has ever produced. Ever wanted to play games smoothly in 2560x1600 with all the eye-candy turned up to the max, including an anti-aliasing mode that can be set to 64x? A single EVGA GTX 590 Classified can do that. Two GTX 590 in Quad-SLI means you’ll be ready for anything.
